I was lying on my bed watching the ceiling fan spin. My right arm was resting on my forehead while I sighed for the hundredth time. My whole world was shaken by the revelation about my past. I couldn’t even process the fact that I, Natalie Adams, was meant to be a Beta, but what made me sad was finally hearing the truth that my parents were not my parents. I mean, something deep, deep, deep inside told me that they weren’t, but I hoped it wasn’t real and that my inner voice was mistaken. As I lay there, I tried digesting all that was said to me and honestly, I didn’t know how to handle it, especially finding out how my real mom was killed. My own Father took her life. A tear rolled on the side of my cheek and I rubbed hard to wipe it off. That man was no Father to me. He was going to pay for what he did to her. Who does that to their mate?! Summer said she had scars on her body that didn’t heal well. I had one objective and that was to avenge her death and I would make sure of it.
I was staring at the wall in the Men’s restroom. A few minutes passed before he spoke, “When did you get back?” I didn’t answer. “Natie–” I growled, cutting him off, “Natalie to you.” I know it's childish. “NO!” He turned me around. “Do you know how long I waited and waited? You never called me or even thought to text me? I thought I meant something to you! You made it seem that way. I told you I liked you and that I wanted to get to know you and…” He pulled his hair in frustration. I glared at him with a murderous look. I couldn’t say anything and instead pulled my arm away from his touch because the sparks were blasting intently up my arm. The sparks from before were nothing compared to the ones I was feeling right now. Anger does obstruct your senses. “DON’T. TOUCH. ME.” I said through my teeth. He stepped forward, closing the distance between us. “You come near me again, and I’ll reject you.” He frowned and hesitated to step back, but he did. Zoe growled pacing back and fort
It didn’t take long with Ms. Slate, but she was a bit nosey and I only told her what she needed to know. After our conversation, I headed to my locker and that’s when I heard my best friend whom I hadn’t seen in ages run up to me and knock me down on the ground, literally. “NATIE!!!!!” She squealed. She bombarded me with kisses all over my face. I couldn’t stop giggling. “I missed you too, Evie! I don’t think Jerry will like the fact that his girl is kissing another girl though.” I chuckled. “Oh, I don’t know, if anything I find it as a turn-on,” Jerry said laughing out loud. Of course he would, he’s a man. “I’m so thrilled to see my girl happy again. She missed you, Natalie, even I missed you.” He said as he gave us a helping hand. “Thank you. I missed you all so much too, Jerry. Thank you for taking care of my best friend here while I was gone.” I said, squeezing my friend so hard. “So…did you find your mate? Your birthday was last month, so did you find him!?” Her question surp
I was surprised to see how Christian behaved during class. He made several jokes, making me snort a couple of times, almost getting me in trouble with the teacher. I have never seen this side of him and admittedly, I enjoyed it. I wish he was more like this before he began to pursue me. I hope that whoever is mated to him will make him happy and vice versa. I wished for him–happily ever after. The bell finally rang and we were heading to the lunchroom. I was laughing at Christian’s remark regarding the teacher. Zeo and Eric were stunned at Christian’s behavior with me because it was such a huge difference from before. “Uh Natie, why is Ivan wearing his gym clothes?” I turned around and I saw Ivan coming down the hallway. I took a deep breath and inhaled his delicious scent. ‘He took a shower?’ Zoe snickered. ‘He did and I’m glad. He looks good in his gym uniform, but I won’t tell him.’ His black hair was still wet from the shower and I loved the look it gave him. My eyes roamed to
I held onto his hand the entire time. I could sense her uneasiness as I walked into her class. I felt the glares of other students, but I kept my cool. Ms. Martinez is a wolf and I am sure by now, she figured that Ivan and I are mates. Never have I ever asked my parents or anyone about how the mate bond works, making me wish I had. I was so occupied with my training and school that it never occurred to me that it was as important as a sex education class. I thought turning 18 was just finding your mate and feeling loved by the one person who was chosen to be with you forever. Boy was I wrong. Damn, those sparks, more like electricity, were intense and doing their job. Now that I think about it, whatever I felt before when I was with Ivan, intensified tenfold. The moment we were close to each other, the bond made my senses stronger. Right now, I feel like my fury is more powerful. I did feel a sexual tension between us both. Holding his hand was doing things to my body and I could
Landon was checking me out with a mega-watt smile. Christian growled, making Landon take his gaze away from me and face him, “So this is the famous, Natalie Adams, the one I’ve been hearing so much about?” I cocked an eyebrow. ‘Famous? So much?’ Ivan did say he was friends with him. He stepped forward and acknowledged the rest. When he stood in front of me, he held out his hand and I gripped it giving it a shake. His hand lingered a few seconds too long. “So you're my Beta?” He asked, grinning. Werewolves are all good-looking, but Alphas and the rest of the high ranks were even more alluring. Landon was handsome. He had chocolate-brown hair, with dark bushy eyebrows. His eyes were dark brown, with a sharp jawline, and medium plump lips. He was 6 '4 a few inches smaller than Ivan and Christian. Landon gave me a very young Steven McQueen vibe. “Yes,” I responded. “Styles!” Christian warned. Landon pulled his hand away, “Calm down Allen, I’m just intrigued here. I’ve heard so much o
Well sh*t…okay! Landon Styles and Elle Wilson are fated. Christian smiled and looked relaxed. I was happy for them, but that girl needed a serious attitude adjustment. At least I can use the fact that she slept with Christian against her if she tries to act like a b*tch. I don’t know how she’ll react when she finds out I’m Landon’s Beta. I’m sure that would scare her. Landon would be pissed if he found out she slept with Christian so many times. ‘What’s that saying Natie? Used and abused? No…how about it’s too loose to use?’ She cackled. I swear Zoe is a trip. I snorted and Christian looked at me. I shrugged and gave him the ‘what’ look. He shook his head. I’m sure he was happy to get rid of her. ~Landon’s POV~ Isn’t this my lucky day? I finally found my mate, she was beautiful too. Maybe not as gorgeous as Natalie, but she was beautiful. She had blonde hair, blue eyes, and a kissable pout aching to be bit and sucked. She had huge boobs and by the looks of it, she took good care o
The relationship between your Beta, Gamma, and Delta should always be strong. Not only am I protecting them and their families, I have to make the right decisions and do everything in my power to keep my entire pack safe. They each have a job. My Beta protects me and has my back no matter what. The Gamma protects his Luna, my mate with his or her life. The Delta helps keep order and trains our pack warriors. Deep inside, I know that if Natalie had stayed in my pack, I would have trusted her to have my back and others. I can sense her power, strength, and how agile she is. ‘F*ck Tyrant, she’s gorgeous too.’ I paced back and forth in my office. ‘Yeah, she is. It would have been perfect if she was with us instead. She is tough and capable. Ivan is a lucky bastard.’ Tyrant commented. ‘Imagine Natalie and Nathan here together in our pack. We would be strong. Enough, we need to speak to our Father and let him know what is going to happen. This can not wait anymore.’ We needed to prepare o
Five years later… “Daddy, stop kissing mommy! That’s my mommy!” Blade yelled at Ivan. “I’m going to marry her one day, so stop kissing her!” Ivan gave Blade a smug look, ‘I swear if this kid wasn’t mine…’ Natalie cocked an eyebrow, ‘What Ivan!? What would you do?’ ‘Nothing, baby. Nothing.’ He chuckled. “We can share for now, but you're going to find your mate one day, Blade,” Ivan said calmly. “Nope! Not me. I’m marrying my mommy and you can’t stop me!” Blade smiled, giving Ivan a triumphant look. “Sure kid, sure. We’ll see. I’m gonna remind him of that crap, watch.” An almost 4 year old Valentina was walking up to Ivan, “Daddy! Your home Daddy! My Daddy.” Ivan looked at Natalie, “Well, at least one of them likes me.” Natalie snorted while she was carrying a 1 and a half year old baby Drew in her hands. They were surprised when they found out they were expecting and became ecstatic when she found out he was a boy. She named him Drew Easton Carter. A little version of both his p
I want to thank each and everyone of you for reading my book, Alpha Ivan. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did writing it. I want to also thank my husband and my sister-in-law for believing in me and supporting me during this moment in my life. Never did I think I could write a book. I knew I had a big imagination, but to jot it down on paper was a whole different level. Please leave an honest review. I will work harder on my next following book, River, making me edit deeply. You will love the next book based on a young girl, named River Barlowe. However, after I begin to work on River, I will also try my hardest to work on the next book in continuation of Alpha Ivan, based on their daughter Valentina and the Lycan’s son. I hope to meet your expectations and fantasies because this for me was an amazing journey. Thank you so much again for reading and providing me with your feedback. I hope you enjoy the epilogue and also hope to have you in suspense >:) Love you all! XOXO Liz. S.
~Third Person POV~ 6 months later ***WINTER MATE BALL*** The Dark Forest pack was hosting the Mate Ball this time. It was mid-January and all single males and females of age were to attend. So many were looking forward to this event, eager to find their mates. Most had to understand that if they didn’t find that special someone, it was most likely because they were not of age yet or they couldn’t make it. This is why Mate Balls were important for all single wolves to attend whenever and wherever it took place. Axel, Zeo, Eric, Kendrick, and Tommy were amongst the male wolves anxious to attend. Royal blue, silver, gray, white, and black were the colors of the ball. They truly made it look and feel like winter in the gorgeous hall that was built recently for this event. The white landscape and gorgeous mountain views made this event even more romantic. Without notice, gorgeous women began to stroll in, in their elegant, attractive, stunning dresses and high heels. It was a funny sc
~Ivan’s POV~ **6 months later** After Natalie's last heat, I made sure I’d filled her up with my seed to last for days. Three days later, I detected a faint, light heartbeat. I was the first to notice it. We were both overwhelmed with joy whilst Natalie was sobbing. She was ready to become a Mother. When I first held one of the St. Cloud twins, it made me realize I wanted to be a Father. I wanted my own family. I had the mind of a 40-year-old, even though I was technically only 18. Unlike many young men when they become young Fathers they develop a fear of the unknown, perhaps being a failure to them, not being able to provide, or to build a bond with their child. There could be so many reasons but not for me. When you're an Alpha, you have to mature more quickly than others. So being a Dad was something I looked forward to. My son would soon make an appearance in this world and I couldn’t be any more ready. My girl looked beautiful being pregnant. It was a whole other level of be
~Natalie’s POV~ Summer was almost over. The pack faced the fright of their lives, but so did I. Ivan was put in a coma. When Jax shot him, hitting his chest and abdomen. He missed his lungs and heart, but his intestines weren’t so lucky. Wolves heal from so many external wounds, but when it comes to our organs it’s a different story. Luckily, the doctor in the Dark Forest pack was there to help Ivan. There was no time for X-ray, CT, MRI scans, or blood tests to examine his body. I lost him for a few minutes and it was the most excruciating pain I have ever felt in my entire life. Zoe was howling like crazy and I could feel her growing weak. Christian, Nathan, Landon, and other warriors were there to support me. Everyone in the Midnight pack felt the link break for a few minutes too. Easton explained to me that he cried out in pain and so did Leslie. They were beyond scared and heartbroken. Tell me about it. Unfortunately for Riley, he had to face my wrath at that very moment. Nev
~Ivan’s POV~ “You were too nice. I would’ve said, ‘If you like to breathe, then I suggest you stay inside your home or die’, Ivan,” Christian snorted. “Yeah, well…most of these people are innocent and don’t agree with half of the crap their Alpha does. Besides they have kids and it would be heartbreaking if some children lost one or both parents, I speak from experience. So giving them a chance to think about those little ones and their loved ones will make them think twice before joining a fight that shouldn’t be theirs, don’t you think?” He shrugged, “ Meh, I guess you do make a point. I’m not in your shoes so...” It made me smile when I saw wolves running to their homes and shutting their doors. “Do not attack any homes that have their doors closed. Let’s respect those wolves who choose not to fight.” My warriors and the other pack members nodded. There has been so much death lately and those that chose to follow Jax’s orders, like the ones during the attacks that took place in
~Nathan’s POV~ I was on my way to the tree when, ‘Nate, I think I’ll be a little late. Seems I’ve been invited to a party.’ What the… ‘Party!? What, what are you talking about Natie!?’ I responded, but nothing. DAMN IT! Natie! Natie!’ I was yelling through the mind-link, but she never answered. I was confused, did she get caught? The woman was good at knocking people out and pulling weight. Did she want to get caught? She had too, there was no other explanation. I waited a few more seconds. Then I heard them rushing out. “We have a spy in our hands! The Alpha is coming. Take her to the dungeons.” A wolf yelled out. I’m sure he was of authority. ‘F*ck, I don’t think we bugged the dungeons,’ I told Sirius. ‘I think the f*ck not, nut case!’ He growled. ‘Shut the hell up and quit being rude! What do we do? We need to tell Ivan.’ I yelled angrily. I didn’t have time for his smart-a*s remarks and sarcasm. ‘Call him. They have our Luna, our friend, so we need to tell him. They’ll h
When they left, I suddenly got a strong gut-wrenching feeling that things would go sideways. I couldn’t explain it because somehow it felt more like a premonition. I did what any smart person would, be two steps ahead. If I was wrong, oh well, but the important thing is to be prepared for anything. I would bring hell to Jax if anything happened to my girl. So, I called Christian, “Ivan? What’s up? Did something happen?” It was almost 3:30 in the morning. “Christian, I don’t know why, but I'm anticipating that something will not go accordingly. I don’t want to worry you, but my girl and Nate are putting their lives at risk for us all. I think it would be best if you gather your warriors and head over here. I’m going to do the same. Have your Father take over in the meantime, but get over here as quickly as you can. Like I said, it’s a feeling, but you know those feelings are hardly wrong.” He exhaled, “Hell Ivan, I understand. You’re not wrong, it’s better to be safe and prepared tha
~Ivan’s POV~ I was a bit nervous heading to my room. I hated pissing Natalie off, but I wore my emotions sometimes on my sleeve, only when it came to her or Leslie. I couldn’t help it, I once hated Christian but now that I know for sure he is fated to Leslie, I mean come on, it was f*cking obvious. As I walked up the stairs, worried that Natalie was going to kick my a*s for the way I behaved, my phone rang. I pulled it out from my pocket and groaned, it was Christian. Didn’t he just leave a few minutes ago, which by the way I had a warrior watching them from afar. I still didn’t trust him, but he came back saying he behaved like a gentleman. Hard to believe. “What’s up, Christian? Did you forget something?” I asked blankly. “No, I have a question for you. I didn’t have time to ask you alone, so now that I’m on the road, I thought I’d call and ask.” Okay. “Alright, ask away,” I said, feeling curious. “Ivan, how did you know for sure Natie was your mate? I mean how because my wolf
